With the quality of most restaurants and the yuppie scum take-over of most decent working mans' bars, it's barely worth going out anymore anyway.
Even places that tout themselves as top flite serve the same bland crap in only slightly variable phoney "atmosphere".
We could probably get a thread of it's own out of that.

After all, no one should deny other people's right to fart as much as they want. In the privacy of their home or in specially-designated public spaces, such as restrooms.
I'm a bit confused, my freedom loving fellow poster?
I owned a small, very popular, small restaurant. As luck would have it many of my patrons were politically correct, government employed, self aggrandizing, self righteous, non smoking, pseudo christian, busybody pigs. The restaurant was popular because the owner loved his business to the point of cooking much of the food himself. That same cook smoked. Every 60 to 90 minutes he paused to step out back for a quick smoke. Some of those self righteous pukes got wind of this practice. They proceeded to do the only proper, responsible, government response. They notified the local health department, they, intern, notified the owner cook. He was admonished for said activities, warned of the dire consequences, and directed to stop illegal activities.
The owner cook, sold the beautiful, small restaurant of 20 years, very quickly.
Presently he drinks and frolics, his former customers, smoking and non smoking, are searching for a beautiful, Epicurean delight they are likely not to find.
Welcome to America.

Pity, isn't it?! The smoking bans are choking our nation's economy and so many businesses have folded...........and people lost jobs, or had hours cut back, all because of these asinine smoking bans.
Why don't people wake UP??!!

I fell off my seat as well.
Check post #378. Why oh why lilmamma18 felt compelled to resurrect this thread is beyond me! This is from 2002. Can you believe it????
The information still holds true today, but my Gawd! She needs to move ON!!!!!
Actually, this thread was one of the best yet, sorry I missed it the first time around.
You are one angry lady !
Wow !
So Dr. Luv. . .Tell me something. . . he quotes all these things about arsenic and other chemicals -- but in reality isn't there a difference between consuming these things and letting the body digest and purge them . . . as opposed to inhaling them where they sit in the lungs and, well turn them attractive shades of black?
I didn't really understand the blackness of a smoker's lungs until I went to the Body Worlds exhibit. www.bodyworlds.com
After seeing that, I can't imagine anyone putting a cigarette in their mouth.
I found your post most interesting,especially the part where the doctor said that your situation was not uncommon.
I was a severely asthmatic child and started smoking at 17,the asthma left 3 years later,never to return.I am now 73 and still smoke.
Teddy Roosevelt's asthma was treated by smoking cigars and he had the best doctors in NY.
We have less smoking today and more asthma.
It's a mystery to me.
"If we continue down this dangerous path of control and prohibition based on an unreliable or remote chance of harm, how many personal freedoms will remain seven generations from now? "
That might give lilmammal something to do for a couple of months.

Two posts, two, in 10 1/2 months on FR. One the first day she registered and this one. Check out the first one, it's practically a book!
She is either a heavy drinker or is deficient in the mental department. Looks like a plea for attention, right?
